There are some Morricone scores that are like what has been mentioned here, where Morricone wrote a few themes and then you get variations of them, but there are other film scores that are more composed through dramatically or scored to picture, and then there are those Morricone scores where there is hardly any repetition, like, for example THE THING, where every piece is different, or likewise the aforementioned THE ISLAND, where the closing theme is a variation of the opening theme, but all other tracks are different.
